Speaker 2 (00:04):
Y'all know what time, y'all don't know y'all all at all, So.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Given them.

Speaker 4 (00:15):
Back A million bus busy.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Yeah, listening to show.

Speaker 5 (00:38):
I want to joy. Yeah, joy, you got to use

(01:06):
love you.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
You gotta turn we.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
Got to turn the mouth turn you probably got to
turn the mouth, turn out the money.

Speaker 6 (01:55):
Come come on you think that, Uh huh, I sure
will A good morning everybody.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
You are listening to the voice, Oh come on now,
dig me if you will.

Speaker 6 (02:10):
One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show, you know,
one of the things about being successful. And I was
sharing this just the other day with a young man
and he asked me. He said, hey, man, I just
don't see how you get up that early in the morning.

(02:31):
I just don't see how, man, it would kill me
to get up this early in the morning. Well, I
sat down and I'm listening to it because it's just
a thousand times I've heard it, you know, And my
life is, you know, not too different from a lot
of people's lives. There's a lot of people out there
that rise early. And I just sit there, man, because
I mean, first of all, I'm grateful to be able

(02:53):
to have a job. I'm so grateful to be able
to do one and sevil that I happened to enjoy doing.
I mean, you know it's work and it's difficult at times,
but I mean, you know I wanted this.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
You know you got it.

Speaker 6 (03:05):
You know you can't ask God for nothing any give
it to you and be mad that you got it.
Don't make no sense.

Speaker 7 (03:09):
You know.

Speaker 6 (03:10):
The problem with asking God for stuff is a lot
of times we ask it for stuff we don't really
know what all it encompasses, what all it really is.
And I ask for this now along the way, I've
gotten far more than I asked for. I want you
to do understand that, and you know that's His grace
at work in my life. But I get up early
and I go to work because I do understand something

(03:33):
that it is not walking up to you. Nobody walks
up to people normally and just hand them checks all
the time, and enough checks to sustain your life, and
not only sustain it, but to have a life that
where you could enjoy and do some of the things
you want to do. I don't know the person that
walks out hands out that money just to be doing

(03:53):
it and then with a lifestyle though, where you can,
you know, give your kids a Christmas, you know, take
your fan. I'm on vacation, you know, a year. Once
a year. I don't know nobody passing out to kind
of money. So I get up early in the morning.
I get at it. I was taught to get up
early in the morning by my father because my father says,

(04:13):
ain't nothing gonna come to you while you lay in there.
And you know what, It's just true, man, it's just
a little common sense. Look, old people smart, man, they've
been around a long time. You don't get old. You know,
some old foods out there, but you know you don't
have to deal with them. But old people are pretty smart, man.
They've learned a lot along the way. And waking up
early and getting at it is one of them things.
And I ask everybody man to think about this scenario

(04:36):
of your life. If a day has twenty four hours
in it, and let's just say you choose to sleep
eight of those hours because they tell you you need
eight hours sleep, so you sleep eight hours, that's a
third of your life asleep. Already, just a third of
your life is spent asleep. If you're gonna do eight

(04:58):
hours a day, Now, let's say you have a job
that you work eight hours, and it is not the
job of your dreams. It's not your dream career, your
dream profession. It's just the one you took, like all
of us, to get it started. And then, like all
of us, some of us end up having this state
at because we've created these bills because we checked and check.
So we can't leave it because we'll lose what we've

(05:20):
worked for. So let's just say you got a job
that you go to work to for eight hours. That's
another third of your life. That's two thirds of your life.
Feel how you want to feel about your two thirds? Well,
I like sleep. Okay, cool, there's a scripture about that too.
But now you spent two thirds of your life one
on a job you don't care for if you're not
happy that, or one that just pays the bills, and

(05:41):
it's not your dream job or career. Another third of
your life is sleep. Oh now, let's hold on. Let's
talk about the one hour of preparation that it may
take to get to the job. That's seventeen hours. Let's
say your drive time. Let's say getting to your job
for the average person is anywhere between thirty to an hour.
That's an average of what it takes to average person. Now,

(06:02):
some people out there hustling way harder than that. But
let's just say your average is an hour getting to work.
You add another hour to that going to work. You've
now spent eighteen hours out of the twenty four doing
something that's either nonproductive, you're not happy with, you're not
pleased about. It is not your dream job, it's not

(06:23):
your dream profession. And rest of the time you sleep.
Eighteen hours. Now you got to come from the job,
so let's just say it's another hour to get back home.
That's nineteen hours. Nineteen hours out of a twenty four
hour day. You now have five hours left in your day. Oh,
you watch TV two hours a day. Okay, excuse me.
Let's put now you put two hours of TV on
that you've just spent twenty one. You now have three

(06:46):
hours in the day to do something super productive for
the development of yourself and the future of your family
and your future as a person and what you can
provide for your family. Uh Oh, I need to chill.
I need to smoke one. Uh Oh, I needed some

(07:07):
time at happy. I seem like all I do is
dry to work and go to work. I'm gonna go
out with the fellas drink one. Okay, Let's say you
spend two hours at Happy I don't nobody go to
a Happy Hours yet for a hour. Let's say you
spend two hours at Happy I'll all smoke in all
some video games. Let's throw that in there. Two hours
of smoking, chilling video games. That's twenty three hours of

(07:30):
your day gone. Don't you see how your day slips
away from you? So why would you get up early?
You get up early to get a jump. You get
up early to produce, to plan, to become productive. You
get up early in the morning to care about every
single minute of your day. You wake up early in

(07:50):
the morning because you have a plan, a mission, You
have something you want to accomplish. The earlier you get up,
the more time you have just for you to devote
to your plan, and you map it out, you make
some send some emails, whatever it is you need to
do to get your dream under way.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
Then you go get ready. Then you get in your
car and go to work.

Speaker 6 (08:11):
Then you go to your job, but on your job,
instead of sitting at your lunch break messing around with
a bunch of people laughing and talking about nothing, playing dominoes.
Why don't you take that hour to do some more research,
to send out some more emails, to put some feelings
out there, to see what can get you in the
place that you want to be. Then when you get off,
instead of driving straight home, why don't you go somewhere

(08:33):
in a meeting, you take in a session with some
people in a positive mental state, group of people that
get together. Network for business, not drink at happy hour.
I set network for business. So after you've done that
eight that you don't really care for on a job,
you spend some more time pursuing, looking into researching, working towards,
sending out some more applications, putting in some more time

(08:57):
to build your new app discussing some more new working ideas. Okay,
that's your happy hour. Then when you go home, instead
of chilling drinking one, having a cold one, smoking one,
playing a video game, why don't you take that two
hours and devote that to that business idea. You got
to that family that you talk about, you really want

(09:17):
spend some time with your children, put something into them.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Do something.

Speaker 6 (09:21):
Man, with all these precious hours that God gives all
of us in the course of a day. Take advantage
of every minute of that. No human being has more
than twenty four hours a day, including myself.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
But if you care about every single minute of that.

Speaker 6 (09:38):
Day, you'll be amazed at how much you could get
accomplished in a twenty four hour day. But you can't
get none of that happening because you sleep, and you
chilling and you smoking. Okay, what has that done for you,
your family or your future? Care about every minute of
your day.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

it's time for you to run that prank back.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
What you got for us?

Speaker 10 (14:27):
HI break you today? Your son is two fat. Let's
go get doc.

Speaker 11 (14:32):
Hello.

Speaker 12 (14:32):
Hello, I'm trying to reach Kathy. Please.

Speaker 11 (14:35):
This is her.

Speaker 12 (14:36):
Hi, Kathy, this is Kirby. I'm actually the owner at
the daycare for mine's daycare when your son comes. Okay,
all right, I'm sure you're familiar with my wife, Anita. Yes, sir,
all right, how you doing today?

Speaker 11 (14:48):
I'm good?

Speaker 12 (14:49):
Oh how little little Divan? How's he doing?

Speaker 11 (14:52):
He's good. He's laying down taking the nap.

Speaker 12 (14:54):
Okay, you guys have been coming here. I guess about
a year now, right, yeah, since he was one. Okay,
I wanted to give you a call. I'm looking at
some information I was I was Divonne doing at home?
Is he is he eating properly at home?

Speaker 11 (15:08):
When you say eating, what do you mean?

Speaker 12 (15:10):
I mean? Is he getting meals every time he's supposed
to get them while he's at home?

Speaker 11 (15:15):
Yeah, he's doing pretty good.

Speaker 12 (15:19):
Okay, Now there's there's there's no situation where you guys
may be a shortage of food or anything like that.
Are you uh.

Speaker 11 (15:27):
Short as the food? No, sir, my husband works real good.
We don't have a problem with as short as the food.
Is there a problem with him?

Speaker 12 (15:34):
Well, you know, we're looking at the records and little
divs too, Yes, sir, have you looked at the comparison
of two year olds the majority of two year olds
in comparison to I guess I should say size in
comparison to Divond's side.

Speaker 11 (15:49):
You mean like in body way body size. I mean
he's a little tall. You know, he wasn't a small
chap when he's born. He was ten pounds. But no,
he's on the scale of right where he's should be.
He's just a little you know, taller to his daddy
is tall.

Speaker 12 (16:03):
But he's doing okay. So you you don't think he's
anywhere in the in the ballpark of of of of
obesity at two?

Speaker 11 (16:13):
You mean fat?

Speaker 12 (16:14):
I mean, I didn't want to be blunt, but but
but miss Cathy, you're I mean, I mean your son.

Speaker 11 (16:21):
Let me just say on a Sunday, I'm relaxing and
we're talking about you think my son is a little
overweight or what he's what's the problem?

Speaker 12 (16:29):
Well, I mean I think he's fat, you know. And
and the problem I'm gonna happen here is that I'm
noticing the records of everything as we wait.

Speaker 11 (16:38):
We need to back up to you think he's fat.
I've never spoken to you mister Kirby, Is that what
she said?

Speaker 12 (16:43):
My name is Kirby.

Speaker 11 (16:44):
Okay, So every morning that I dropped him off for
a year and I give my daycare money. Miss Benita
has never said anything about his eating habits. So you're
telling me that you think my son is fat?

Speaker 12 (16:55):
What with him?

Speaker 11 (16:56):
You deal with him on a daily basis.

Speaker 12 (16:58):
I don't deal with him on a daily basis when
I look at yet as records that are showing me
that he's eating way more than the rest of anybody
at the daycare. And not only that, he's drinking probably
a gallon of milk a day.

Speaker 11 (17:09):
A gallon of milk. Y'all only get snacks two times
a day and he's there only for breakfast in lunch,
And how in the hell is he drinking a gallon
of milk? And if he answer, ma'am, But all I
know is this, No, No, I'm blown away by this
because you calling me on a Sunday color of my
child fat. That's the problem. And your wife has never
said a thing. Never has she said one thing to

(17:31):
me in a year? Was she collecting my daycare money?
She ain't said my son is eating y'all at a
house at home.

Speaker 12 (17:36):
Okay. Well, you know, my wife's a different person and
she tries to be cordial with everyone.

Speaker 11 (17:39):
He's the one who deals with me. Mister Kirby, I've
never met you, never met you, especially all of a Sunday.

Speaker 12 (17:45):
The reason why I'm calling you on a Sunday, ma'am,
is that I know tomorrow if you're going to be
trying to drop your.

Speaker 11 (17:50):
Son off, I am gonna drop him off.

Speaker 6 (17:52):
I am don know.

Speaker 12 (17:53):
No, that's that's kind of the reason why I'm calling you. Now,
here's what we can that's what you want. Furniture is here.
Either you can keep him at home.

Speaker 11 (18:00):
No, I'm not keeping him at home. My husband works
and I work. I'm dropping my son off at six
thirty like I do every morning.

Speaker 12 (18:07):
Okay, now, ma'am, listen, if we can't get.

Speaker 11 (18:11):
Him, you really want to get this banita on this side,
because obviously you ain't the one that need to be
talking to me, because if you're not there every day
and I deal with your wife.

Speaker 12 (18:19):
I'm telling you that your son is too big to
be his is.

Speaker 11 (18:24):
Coming every morning if that's the case, and if he's
eating at a house and home, I send him some
extra But what I pay my money for. Is what
you're gonna feed him for two four meals and two snacks,
and if he needs extra, I'll put some in his bag.

Speaker 12 (18:37):
But he's drinking a gallon of milk a day.

Speaker 11 (18:41):
Are you you care? I don't care. There's no way
possible that he can drink a gallon of milk a day, y'all, ma'am.

Speaker 12 (18:46):
Here's the deal. I don't want you to have to
stop bringing your son now, and I'm not and I'm not.
Here's my second alternative. I will put him on a diet. Okay,
I'll give him an apple in the day.

Speaker 11 (18:56):
You ain't, No, you ain't, are you from the I will.

Speaker 12 (19:01):
I will give him an apple and a glass of
water in the morning, and I'll give him an apple
and a glass of water in the evening. And then
you guys can feed him when he gets wrong.

Speaker 11 (19:08):
You must be certified in the food program, especially if
you sitting up here telling me my son is going
on a diet and he's not drinking no water and
no apple. He needs a full snack. If the other
kids is having an apple and water, then neugh that
you better be serving him. But if that ain't the case,
of hell, No, he better get the full snack. So
if that's Graham crackers and apple juice, well that's what
my son better be getting. And if he won't ask her,

(19:29):
he better get it.

Speaker 12 (19:30):
Listen, all I'm trying to tear you in. Your son
drink too much?

Speaker 11 (19:37):
WHOA well, you need to back the stop. I know
you did not cussing me.

Speaker 12 (19:40):
I know I did not cuss that.

Speaker 11 (19:42):
You got ready to cut to me. Let me tell
you what say. You ain't got to worry about it.
We don't have nothing else to talk about. My husband, me,
your wife, and everybody that works at they care better
be there in the morning because that's six thirty. We
gonna be there. And my son he's coming on week
and he gonna eat all week. If he WoT two

(20:03):
gallons of milk, he gonna drink it. If he want
twolplates of food, he gonna get it. Because I tell
you what, we pay good money to come to that daycare.

Speaker 12 (20:11):
So bring your child up there. But I'm gonna have
to put him on some swim fast. Now, I will
put your child on slim fast. I was trying not
to give him to suspective, but I will give.

Speaker 11 (20:23):
Him some slim fast, and you're gonna get a slim
fast whooping. I'm gonna whoop yos. And whoever gave it
to him, whoever gave it to him, they gonna get
a slim fast whooping. All the little kids that have
some slim fast. If he getting some, he better eat
whatever they eating. If they eat steak, would he better
have some too.

Speaker 12 (20:38):
If we had steak, he probably eat the whole cow.

Speaker 11 (20:40):
I don't care. I pay for it, but he better
not getting a climp fast. I will shut it down
about my child.

Speaker 12 (20:47):
Okay, I got something else you need to know about
your son.

Speaker 11 (20:50):
What the else do I need to know? Besides you
think my son is overweight?

Speaker 3 (20:55):
What the stuff?

I love having a long distance relationship. She wants to
discuss moving in together. But I don't think it's a
good idea. Should I be honest? Or do I agree

losing her?

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Should he? No, don't do that, bro, don't do that.

Speaker 12 (23:16):

Speaker 1 (30:17):
She didn't want to told us it was a little Tommy. Tommy.
Love you all right? Coming over at the top of
the hour, Thank you, Cila.

Speaker 9 (30:28):
We'll have some entertainment news for you right after that.
You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. Well, Steve, you and
Tommy both have TV shows, so here's some new research
about traditional TV, that's what we call regular TV. Now
traditional TV, forty percent of gen zers that's ages nineteen

(30:50):
or eighteen to thirty four would rather watch YouTube or
TikTok content than watch regular TV or paid streaming services.
The reason and behind the shift is a new trend
called micro dramas. Now, the micro dramas are short scripted
episodes that might be of a fight or some kind
of other engaged, engaging drama to keep viewers watching. Close

(31:14):
to twenty eight million adults prefer these short clips over
TV shows.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
So here's the question.

Speaker 9 (31:20):
Do you guys think watching traditional TV and streaming services
will continue to decline over the years?

Speaker 1 (31:26):
Wow, yep, you thinks.

Speaker 6 (31:29):
So it's declining. That's the whole problem with regular TV.
Law its declining. Yeah, you gotta start thinking at one
point of reinventing yourself.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
And why why is it? The attention span they just
don't have, well, the attention.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Span, the options.

Speaker 6 (31:46):
You know, people don't sit at home anymore because you
don't have to, because you can watch anything on your
phone now, and them kids ain't got no problem watching
the show on their phone.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
I can't stand it.

Speaker 6 (31:58):
A big screen yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been trying
to watch your watch.

Speaker 2 (32:06):
I'm sorry, yeah yeah, yeah, but you right, And.

Speaker 6 (32:09):
I like sometimes on my streaming I try to watch
the game on my phone, but then I can't see
the football. Yeah right, I don't know who got it.
He fade back to throw. He might well just keep fading. Yeah,
it's it's it has changed, you know, and it's not

(32:31):
going to go back going to it. You know, it's
just not man.

Speaker 9 (32:35):
Well, I think I would still watch family feud and
celebrity family feud and of course Ready to Love. So
we still watch those shows. You guys are doing all right?

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Yeah, hold it, holding on.

Speaker 14 (32:49):
I still think some of the younger generation, like my daughter,
they watch certain shows.

Speaker 1 (32:55):
Yeah, the streaming app so they do watch. But like
you said, it is a decline.

Speaker 9 (33:02):
Yeah, gone out of the days when the family gets
together and sits and watches one TV show.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah sure, I never liked that in no way.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
You didn't like watching good times together and good times.

Speaker 6 (33:16):
And because see I wanted to laugh at it and
way you know, when I was watching good Times, I
wanted to react that they o't mind, won't be there
with nobody.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
You couldn't do that with your mom in the room.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
They almost come in home. I had a reaction to.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
All right, Moving on.

Speaker 9 (33:40):
According to popular Christmas retailer Balsam Hill, forty Americans plan
to put up a tree, put up three or more
Christmas trees this year, turning their homes into winter wonderlands.
The living room remains the top spot, but dining rooms
and hallways or getting in on the action too. Many
say they're spending more time and money on decorating this

(34:02):
year than they did in years past, and said it
makes them happier.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
People want to be happy now.

Speaker 9 (34:08):

trees make their homes look better in photos.

I don't understand whilst y'all have a meeting about my
kids in the church, what my kids got to do
with the church.

Speaker 10 (49:52):
Well, what we're trying to do is show a good
example to the youth that we got there.

Speaker 17 (49:56):
Okay, you can show a good example about me being
there paying my time as an offer.

Speaker 10 (50:01):
Well, that's another thing that's been brought down attention that
that we're gonna be calling a lot of members about it.

Speaker 2 (50:06):
People not paying the tithe and where they fold.

I pay my task.

Speaker 12 (50:10):
I don't know.

If you do you pay your tithes according to what
you make?

Speaker 17 (50:35):
Yes, I do check the books.

Speaker 10 (50:38):
Now, what it is that we can't check the books,
that we don't know exactly what you make?

Speaker 2 (50:43):
Is what I'm saying.

Speaker 17 (50:45):
What I make is my bustiness between me and Jesus.
I give him his ten percent and that's all Mars.
He'll need to know.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
And I understand exactly where you're coming from.

Speaker 10 (50:56):
But the main issue on the table is about to
boards and and and being you know, disrupted the way
to here.

Speaker 2 (51:03):
They don't want that to be to bleed over into
the youth quad.

Speaker 17 (51:07):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, And first of all,
I would appreciate if you would have Pastor to tell
me this hisself. And then, second of all. If somebody
kids is having trouble in the world or whatever, y'all
supposed to play for them, not put them after church
or they Mama, Well.

Speaker 10 (51:22):
I'm I'm what I'm we're gonna we're gonna pray for
and we're gonna pray for you too, But we don't
want to shad over to the youth that we got
that doing.

Speaker 17 (51:30):
Good with this man, I'm gonna keep coming. Y'all can't
stop me from coming to the church. I'm gonna keep coming.
So I don't know who you talking to. And you
tell a pastor to call me himself and tell me
I can't come to Heal and you have nobody calling
me telling me that I can't come to Hell.

Speaker 11 (51:49):
That is a free church.

Speaker 2 (51:51):
I'm gonna get the pastor call up.

Speaker 17 (51:53):
Why you get the pastor to call me, because you
have no business calling me telling me that I can't
come to.

Speaker 10 (51:59):
God's House, Mayfield, I don't want you to get in
the roll with me now.

Speaker 17 (52:03):
I'm not getting I'm not getting angry with nobody.

Speaker 12 (52:06):

half nobody calling me telling me that I can't come
to a church that I pay my task and offering
are not that I own the church. I pay my
task because that's that's due to God. But y'all really
making me upset by telling me I can't come there
because of my kids in their troubles.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
Mayfield, where was you this past Sundery? You wasn't that.

You never know it could be Buckle up and hold

strawberry letter.

Speaker 9 (56:50):
Thank you, nep you subject the jump off jumped on him.
Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm thirty two years old and I've
been dating this guy for almost eight months, and we've
had fun getting to know each other. He was honest
in the beginning and told me he had some loose
ends to tie up before we got serious, and I
appreciated that honesty. The fact that he didn't hide his

(57:12):
phone or turned his ringer off made me feel that
he was ready to be in a relationship with me,
so I didn't trip all. We went out all over town,
and I stayed at his home all of the time.
The only thing that made me suspect suspect he was
up to something was a few nights I couldn't reach him,
but I let it go. I invited him to visit

(57:35):
my parents with me. My parents live about two hours
from us, so we went on an overnight trip to
visit them. They cooked dinner for us, and after dinner,
my man and I went out to a hookah spot
to unwind. My boyfriend got a phone call and walked
away to take it. He got upset and he was
ready to go back to my parents' house. We got

(57:56):
to his car and there was a car blocking us in,
and he asked the car to move, and the lady
flipped him off. I didn't think anything of it. When
we got to my parents' house, that same car pulled
up in the driveway. This same lady got out and
ran up and start started hitting on my man. My
dad heard the commotion and came outside to pull her

(58:18):
off my man. The lady said she's been seeing my
man for a few months, and she followed us. I
was very embarrassed and reluctantly took him to the er
to get stitches. In her words, she told police says
she knew she was the jump off, but she fell
in love with him and he would leave me for her.

(58:42):
He said, he got caught up slept with her, but
he wants me. Can I trust this man and continue
this relationship despite just what happened, what just happened, Well,
he certainly has no control over what crazy did. I mean,
she did that all on her own, game him stitches
and all of that, But the crazy part is that

(59:03):
this really happened. I mean, she's fatal attraction crazy like
the movie. You do know that, right, And now she
knows where your parents live. She stalked you guys from
the restaurant, beat your man so badly that he needed stitches.

Speaker 1 (59:17):
And she's only been seeing him for a few months. Well,
I'm sure your.

Speaker 9 (59:22):
Parents would tell you to run, and I'm probably go
I'm going to tell you the same thing.

Speaker 1 (59:27):
I mean, your safety is way more important.

Speaker 9 (59:29):
Even though she didn't do anything to you, she just
did it to your man, But you don't want to
wait around and see how crazy she really is.

Speaker 1 (59:37):
Again, I think your safety is very important.

Speaker 9 (59:39):
And even if you were to keep seeing him, you
would always be looking over your shoulder wondering if crazy
could be lurking in a corner somewhere. So you know,
I'm going to say it's a no for me for
you as far as this relationship goes, because this woman
is too crazy. She's just too crazy.

Speaker 6 (59:56):
Steve, Well, I don't have the letter in front of
because of my whereabouts again, so we're going to have
to deal with this letter just a little bit differently.

Speaker 2 (01:00:07):
The title of the letter again surely.

Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
Is to jump off jumped on him.

Speaker 6 (01:00:13):
Jump off jumped on him. The jump off didn't jump
on you. He didn't jump on you. His daddy jumped
on the jump off. It's just a lot of jumping
going on. I appreciate it. Ay none to me like
a good old swipoping type letter to deal with. So

(01:00:35):
I specialize in this cause I have been jumped on
before by the jump off, the jump ee, and the jumper.
I've had all three whoopers in my life, the jumper,
the jump ee, and the jump off, and then I

(01:00:55):
ended up as the.

Speaker 2 (01:00:56):
Jump So it's all all so relative here.

Speaker 6 (01:01:02):
The wonderful thing about having a famous radio show hods.

Speaker 2 (01:01:06):
With means it means that he has had a full life.

Speaker 6 (01:01:11):
The beauty of the Steve Harvey Morning shows that I
don't mind being transparent in my full life.

Speaker 2 (01:01:20):
Now.

Speaker 6 (01:01:20):
Can I tell everything? Absolutely not? But will I share
with you a lot? Of course it makes for more
interesting radio. I happen to be one of the most
compelling radio personalities on radio today.

Speaker 2 (01:01:36):
The Steve Harvey Marting.

Speaker 6 (01:01:37):
Show is more compelling than most shows because I don't
really care about the issues more than I care about
myself issues and make them about me that way you
can understand from a personal standpoint. Wise, See this letter

(01:01:58):
right here is very easy for me to do. I'm
gonna wait the second half to give you resolution, but
I'm just giving you a little strawberry letter history hire.

Speaker 2 (01:02:07):
This letter is very.

Speaker 6 (01:02:08):
Simple for me to do. The jump off jumped on him. Well,
all I can say you glass, he didn't get the yoke.
It don't seem like the type that can hand them
much jumping. I do appreciate your ladder, your daddy and
this letter for coming out and on the porch and

(01:02:30):
jumping on the jump fur to see the jump off.
Didn't know that to jump off you was gonna come
in there and get jumped.

Speaker 2 (01:02:40):
See.

Speaker 6 (01:02:40):
I wrote a book called jump when she That's me
an expert on this here jump off. It is amazing
how this works, don't you see it? Fans, friends, haters,
internet trolls.

Speaker 2 (01:03:00):
Yeah, that's who listened to the show.

Speaker 6 (01:03:02):
We got fans, we got friends, we got loyalty people,
and then we got haters.

Speaker 2 (01:03:06):
Didn't listen to the show.

Speaker 6 (01:03:07):
Initial Yeah, so I'll be giving out internet advice when
we come back on the jump off.

Speaker 2 (01:03:13):
Jumped on him. He got stitches.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.

let's recap today's strawberry letter. The subject the jump off
jumped on him.

Speaker 6 (01:04:00):
Very quickly. In recap, we've learned that this jump off
jumped on him. To set this letter up, you are
dealing with someone who has been jumped on by the jumper,
the jump off and the jump e. I have been
all of it, and I've written a book called jump

(01:04:21):
So we are dealing with an expert on this letter
right here.

Speaker 2 (01:04:26):
So let us begin.

Speaker 6 (01:04:27):
Shirley, read the letter quickly and I'll tell you the
points I need for you to stop because this is
the letter in a nutshell.

Speaker 9 (01:04:33):
Okay, there's Stephen, Shirley I'm thirty two years old and
I've been dating this guy for almost eight months, and
we've had fun getting to know each other. He was
honest in the beginning and told me he had some
loose ends to tie up before we got serious, and
I appreciated that honesty.

Speaker 2 (01:04:50):
The loose ends is what jumped on his The loose ends,
it's the one that jumped on his.

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
Going all right.

Speaker 9 (01:05:02):
The fact that he didn't hide his phone or turn
his ringer off made me feel that he was ready
to be in a relationship with me, so I didn't trip.

Speaker 2 (01:05:11):
Stop right there.

Speaker 6 (01:05:13):
You can't cut your phone off when your jumpee is crazy,
because if they can't contact you, Uh huh, that elevates
the craziness.

Speaker 1 (01:05:23):
Ree Okay. We went out all over town and I
stayed at his home all of the time.

Speaker 9 (01:05:29):
The only thing that made me suspect suspect that he
was up to something was a few nights I couldn't
reach him, but I let it go.

Speaker 1 (01:05:38):
I invited him.

Speaker 6 (01:05:40):
Stop right there once again, this is the loose ends.
He over there trying to tie not in it, and
obviously it don't work, Hue.

Speaker 1 (01:05:53):

went on an overnight trip to visit them. They cooked
dinner for us, and after dinner, my man and I
went out to a hookah spot to unwind. My boyfriend
got a phone call and walked away to take it.

Speaker 2 (01:06:12):
Stop.

Speaker 1 (01:06:12):
He got upset and he was ready to stop right there.

Speaker 2 (01:06:15):
Okay, phone call, got up from the table to take
it once again.

Speaker 6 (01:06:24):

Jumping on him, he read quickly.

For older kids see Miko three on the Miko website
and Amazon. All right, Steve, here we go with part
three of today's Strawberry Letter. The subject is the jump
off jumped on him.

Speaker 6 (01:11:02):
We all know that this dude is the He had
some lootens when he started dating a letter that wrote
to dating the lady that wrote the letter, and he said, hey, listen,
I'm gonna be honest with which I got some loose ends.
He was trying to get these loose ends tied up
with the jump off chick, but it didn't work out.
The Louciens was two lists. He's bringing it too good.
I mean, this boy's doing some things to people that's

(01:11:24):
got them all twisted up. You included in this letter
to the point where she done jumped on his gave
him stitches because he's doing something. I'm talking about out standing.
This dude right here is bringing it. Here's the problem line.
You want to know should you continue in this relationship
and surely told you to run? You want to know

(01:11:45):
if you should stay with him, and surely told you
to get out. Now, surely gave you good advice. My
take is different. Shirley was almost there with me, but
then she switched. He told you it was some problems
he had. The problem he dating the crazy. Now he's

(01:12:05):
probably a good man, but he dated a crazy and
he put it on the crazy person too good. See,
when you're dating a crazy person, you can't give them
your all in all, but he don't know that because
he's young, y'all, in your thirties, he don't know that. See,
you have to portion it out based on sanity.

Speaker 2 (01:12:27):
You can only what.

Speaker 6 (01:12:31):
You have to portion it out based on sanate. See,
crazy people, you can't give them your all. You have
to wait until you meet a calm, sensible woman for
you start giving it your all. You give it all
to a crazy person. They already crazy. Now you in

(01:12:52):
here touching spots and causing chemical reactions and stuff and
they already crazy. Now you're just set up. Here a
slept did bipolar heffel. Now here come hell stitches, Steve stitches.
That's how good it is to bust you outside your
head and give you stitches. Jas mss Sullivan was breaking
our cardboard and she was busting faces.

Speaker 18 (01:13:13):
It's all the same. I push the windows out your car.
I put some stitches on your head. I spin open
your phone.

Speaker 6 (01:13:28):
Hey, send you to the doctor, may cause you to
stay in bed.

Speaker 2 (01:13:36):
I put some stitches in your head.

Speaker 1 (01:13:40):
Sing it too much?

Hi, my name is Carlos Miller and I'm Chico Bean,
and I'm the food with the tattoo.

Speaker 19 (01:14:02):
And you are now listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.
You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right,
This is from Veronica in Fort Worth. Veronica says, I
owned a boutique with a friend. We had a water
leak that damaged a lot of the merchandise and it
was covered by insurance. My friend is still selling some

(01:14:25):
of the merchandise and I think that's illegal. Do I
ask her to split the profits or steer clear of
this in uh? In case it's illegal?

Speaker 14 (01:14:35):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:14:35):
Yes, splitter?

Speaker 8 (01:14:36):
Yeah, why weren't you splitter?

Speaker 10 (01:14:38):
Well?

Speaker 2 (01:14:39):
Is she selling it and ringing it up or she
just selling it?

Speaker 1 (01:14:43):
Yeah, she didn't say how she was selling it. She's
just selling it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:48):
They ain't got nothing to ring up with.

Speaker 1 (01:14:50):
Yeah, way, we can't water damage.

Speaker 2 (01:14:52):
It is illegal. But what is what's wrong is that
that's a recent illegal right there?

Speaker 1 (01:15:01):
That was wrong?

Speaker 2 (01:15:03):
Man? What if y'all y'all just bee y'all? Do you
know how miracle was built? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:15:09):
We do, Okay, we definitely do.

Speaker 9 (01:15:16):
So you think she should steer clear of this in
case it's illegal? So she's not not participate in the profits?

Speaker 1 (01:15:24):
Okay? Not participate in the profits?

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
Is your stuff? Why would you not participate in? Really?
Always want to white? Answer? Go ahead, go ahead, answer.

Speaker 12 (01:15:34):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (01:15:37):
Yeah, this is not a racial question.

Speaker 6 (01:15:40):
If they go to court, it's gonna have something to
do with color in here.

Speaker 12 (01:15:44):
Now. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:15:48):
The question is do I ask her to split the
profits or steer clear of this in case it's illegal?
You're saying it's illegal, so should she participate take in
the profits or just.

Speaker 2 (01:15:59):
You not do that?

Speaker 1 (01:16:01):
You're clear?

Speaker 2 (01:16:01):
All right, you're still clear of it? Did yes? Please? Yeah?
Today safe free.

Speaker 1 (01:16:12):
There was no conviction in that answer.

Speaker 2 (01:16:14):
Whatever.

Speaker 6 (01:16:16):
She all on vacation, saving for a KI everything you
he obey in law? Huh?

Speaker 9 (01:16:26):
All right, we have time for another one. This is
from Sunjay and Telsa. Snjay writes, My husband and I
talked about having a threesome and I never gave him
a definite yes on it. The other day I asked
if he had a female in mine and he said
that he did. But he's changed his mind and he
doesn't want to do the threesome. That makes me skeptical.

(01:16:50):
He's not willing to tell me who he wanted to
do the threesome with, So I think he's having an
affair with the lady. If he's having an affair, is
it my fault for entertaining the idea of being with
another female?

Speaker 1 (01:17:04):
Wow? That's loaded.

Speaker 6 (01:17:06):
Well yeah, you know, if you was okay with the threesome,
then he went cool. Now he having a threesome. It's
just you ain't there, he's yeah, it's you here matter her?

Speaker 12 (01:17:23):
Yeah, it's.

Speaker 1 (01:17:27):
So it's her fault for bringing to it in the
first place.

Speaker 6 (01:17:29):
You're saying, well, I'm not saying is your fault. He
wanted to do it when he found out you was
kind of considering it. He went on and did it,
and he got somebody in mind. But the problem is
he'd have probably been with this woman and nine when
y'all get together, she gonna say something real messed up

(01:17:51):
while y'a do it like you did the other day,
you know, something like that. That's what's gonna happen. That's
why he trying to He don't want to do it
now because stand the man that actually ask it again?
Why she keeps saying again.

Speaker 1 (01:18:10):
Not the other part.

Speaker 9 (01:18:15):
Fun.

Speaker 1 (01:18:16):
I'm glad she changed her mind.

Speaker 2 (01:18:19):
You're the best I ever had. How she knows you're
a mess.

Speaker 1 (01:18:26):
So so you're saying, yeah, she's asking is it her fault?
You're saying, it's not that it's her fault, but she
should have never entertained it.

Speaker 6 (01:18:34):
Well, look, you can't. You just can't introduce foolishness into
your marriage.

Speaker 2 (01:18:41):
That's so I can't do it.

Speaker 9 (01:18:45):
All right, all right, Sanjay and Tulsa coming up at

Speaker 6 (01:25:28):
We have fun at a fier day to the brothers
over Maka sci five one motime. So you know what,
just a couple of fun statements about it. I guess
you know you pledge what you relate to, whether you're
an alpha sigma, capro q iota, whatever you are. I
guess you got a pledge with what you relate to.

(01:25:51):
And then it's the time period that you grew up here.
These are my closing remarks, by the way, and which yeah,
where where you pledge? Way you chose to accept the call.
You know, it's it's a it's a it's a strange thing.
You can interject anything.

Speaker 2 (01:26:06):
You want to times.

Speaker 10 (01:26:07):
I just want every Greek organization to know that there's
nothing wrong with your Greek organization and you're not going
to hell for being in one.

Speaker 2 (01:26:15):
That's all I want to say. Thank you.

Speaker 6 (01:26:17):
Yeah, I thought that was that was one of the
most ignorant things I've ever heard. And uh, you know, look,
if you want to denounce being in the frat when
you get older, that's you. You ain't active, no way,
but just go ahead on. But don't write off hundreds
of millions of people because they're in a fraternity or
sorority and tell them that they go on to hell?

Speaker 2 (01:26:37):
What ass at?

Speaker 12 (01:26:40):
What?

Speaker 2 (01:26:41):
Where? Where is that?

Speaker 6 (01:26:43):
And it don't make no sense. Do you know how
many great ministers are in the poor pit who are
in a Greek organization? Do you know how many great
members are on deacon boards, usher boards, in politics, in teaching,

(01:27:06):
in sports, on the radio, and all because they in
a group that you not in. You done wrote everybody
off and they got to go to hell now for
what It doesn't make no sense, you know. And like
I was saying, you know, everybody, you get to be
whatever you want to be. Man, all of them cool,

(01:27:28):
all of them cool. I was watching some offers stepping
on on our Instagram the other day. They was getting it.
I saw some sigmas.

Speaker 2 (01:27:38):
They was, They was getting it. You know, it's hard
for me.

Speaker 6 (01:27:46):
I ain't really good at complimenting other frats. I'm just
gonna be real with y'all's just really not that good
at it.

Speaker 2 (01:27:51):
I just try to.

Speaker 6 (01:27:52):
I try to be open minded and complimented. I just
ain't good at it because I guess because you chose
what you chose for a reason. Tommy is a Cappel.
I'm a cue, That's it. J Anthony Brown is a Sigma.

(01:28:17):
But I will say this about Radio q's controlled adways.
That's all I'm saying. I'm just I'm just gonna throw
that out come Black radio run things. Q's running things
up in here. But can I tell you something, man,
one of my best friends I ever met is a Cappel.

(01:28:44):
A guy that took care of me at college, the most,
that taught me the ropes was a dude named John Tolliver.
He was an alpha, the coldest singers I ever heard, saying,
up under a street light, what's some sigmas? Them sigmas

(01:29:07):
at Kent State is seventy four Sunday five, Sunday six.

Speaker 2 (01:29:10):
Oh Lord, have mercy. The boys was cold.

Speaker 6 (01:29:15):
So you know, it's just a matter of what you do.
I don't the sororities, all of them cool with me.
I like all of them, you know, And so frst man,
I'm just talking. It ain't nothing, junior. Let me ask
you a question. Man, if you had pledged, what would
you have pledged in college? That'd be an interesting question.

Speaker 8 (01:29:32):
Oh, maga fact, can you please me?

Speaker 2 (01:29:35):
Could you pay?

Speaker 6 (01:29:36):
Slow, slow a little bit. This ain't what you want,
This ain't what you want. I'm from a different era, don't.
I can't play at you man, that no, man can No,
we can. We can allow you to access to membership.

Speaker 2 (01:29:52):
That's what we can do. Could you make five six,
eight week? Junior?

Speaker 8 (01:29:58):

Speaker 1 (01:30:01):
Come on, boy, cor did you lose to me?

Speaker 2 (01:30:07):
Okay? This ain't not renning? Well, yeah, you're.

Speaker 8 (01:30:12):

But you know, man, it would be interesting. But we
have a call an intake process and you can. Yeah, man,
you be more than welcome to partake of it. Oh

I'm trying to keep my standing. I'm lifetime member and everything.

(01:30:35):
Can you at least here?

Speaker 2 (01:30:37):
Yeah? But I'm head. Yeah, you know, Junior is a
little different.

Speaker 8 (01:30:41):
Now I see the hesitancy. I see it, I see it.

Speaker 2 (01:30:44):
Yeah, could you have pledged when I pledge in seventy six?
I wouldn't.

Speaker 8 (01:30:49):
I wouldn't do that if I was recommend it.

Speaker 2 (01:30:51):
No, I don't. I don't recommend it to nobody.

Speaker 10 (01:30:54):
You might want to be a Mason Jr. You might
want to be a Mason sometimes. Hey, are y'all taking people?

Speaker 2 (01:30:59):
Tell me right now? We close? Right now, we close.

Speaker 2 (01:31:18):
An eye older?

Speaker 1 (01:31:21):
My first day ask you?

Speaker 2 (01:31:23):

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
